Reverse Cholesterol & Heart Disease

By: Juliet Cohen

Heart disease, (Angina pectoris) is the result of myocardial ischemia caused by an imbalance between myocardial blood supply and oxygen demand. In most cases, the lack of blood supply is due to a narrowing of the coronary arteries as a result of arteriosclerosis. This pain is known as angina. It is more likely to occur during exertion (e.g. walking, climbing stairs) when the heart muscle needs more blood and oxygen as it works harder. Angina usually occurs during exertion, severe emotional stress, or after a heavy meal. During these periods, the heart muscle demands more blood oxygen than the narrowed coronary arteries can deliver. Angina is common. It affects about 1 in 50 people and there are estimated to be 1.2 million people with angina in the UK. It is more common in men than women and the likelihood of it occurring increases with age. Angina also can occur in people with valvular heart disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (this is an enlarged heart due to disease) or uncontrolled high blood pressure. Typical angina is uncomfortable pressure, fullness, squeezing or pain in the center of the chest. Many types of chest discomfort aren't related to angina. Acid reflux (heartburn) and lung infection or inflammation are examples.

Causes of Angina The common Causes of Angina : Heart failure - Narrowing of the aortic heart valve - Anaemia - Abnormal heart rhythms - Fast, abnormal heart rhythms - Diseases of the heart muscle - Coronary artery spasm (also called Prinzmetal's angina)

Symptoms of Angina Some Symptoms of Angina :Numbness or a loss of feeling in Your arms or legs often "go to sleep"? Do you experience numbness in the arms or legs? On short walks, do your legs get aches or pains? Ankles that swell late in the day?
